Elvis fans missed this one from July. Everyone knows Road house.

Red West, a boyhood friend and member of Elvis Presley's "Memphis Mafia" who appeared in many of the singer's movies as well as in Road House, Black Sheep Squadron and Goodbye Solo, has died. He was 81.

West appeared as a stuntman/actor on dozens of episodes of CBS' futuristic Western series The Wild Wild West in the 1960s and a decade later had a regular role as Sgt. Andy Micklin on another Robert Conrad-starrer, NBC's Black Sheep Squadron.

He portrayed Red Webster, the owner of an auto parts store who gets his revenge against Ben Gazzara's character, in the Patrick Swayze classic Road House (1989) and was Sheriff Tanner in the Walking Tall movies released in 1973 and 1975.

Ouch... that one hurts... Crying or Very sad

Well the danger on the rocks is surely past
Still I remain tied to the mast
Could it be that I have found my home at last
Home at last

People do not realize that half of one of the most talented cleanest sounding and perfectly orchestrated bands is now gone.
Becker and Fagen kept SD small so so that they could use multiple studio musicians to get just the desired sound. People thought they did it to avoid having many musicians to share with, it was truly about the music.
While I only got see them in concert once, They were as clean on stage as on Vinyl.
Unfortunately Walter Becker " Had a few Demons at the door ". R I P
Walter. Your inspiration will live on.

The 'Man who saved the world'. He did not start World War Three, though he easily could have.

Former Soviet military officer Stanislav Petrov died in May, though his death has only just been widely reported.
